Answer:

  • $3309 at 6%
  • $9985 at 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent amounts invested at 6% and 9%, respectively.

  y = 3x +58 . . . . . . . the amount invested at 9%

  0.06x +0.09y = 1097.19 . . . . . . total interest earned

__

Substituting for y, we have ...

  0.06x +0.09(3x +58) = 1097.19

  0.33x + 5.22 = 1097.19 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.33x = 1091.97 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5.22

  x = 3309 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.33

  y = 3(3309) +58 = 9985

$3309 is invested at 6%; $9985 is invested at 9%.

What is the solution set of |–x| = –10?
dem82 [27]
|a| = b gives
a =b or a = -b

so,
|-x| = -10
gives
-x = -10 or -x = 10
x = 10, -10

now let us verify,
when x = 10, |-10| = +10 and it is not = -10
so, x= 10 is NOT a solution.

when x = -10, |-(-10)| = |10| = 10 and it is not = -10
so, x= -10 is NOT a solution.

hence, this equation does not have a solution.

If we know that |...| can never be negative, we can directly deduce that this equation does not have any solution.

A square has an area of 100 in2.<br><br> What is the perimeter of the square?
Travka [436]
40 in2.

To find the area you multiply the width by length so you would have to find what multiplied by what would equal 100. This gives you the answer of 10. To find the perimeter you add up all the sides and because a square has 4 sides you would add 10+10+10+10 which equals 40. Hope this helped!
